Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup oil (canola, vegetable, or coconut)
1 cup mashed bananas (about 2 medium bananas)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup plain yogurt or Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with oil or cooking spray, then dust the inside lightly with flour. Set the prepared pan aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the mashed bananas, oil, yogurt, vanilla extract, and eggs. Stir together until well mixed.
Add the brown sugar to the wet ingredient mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together, stirring only until the ingredients are just combined. Do not overmix the batter.
Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan until it reaches room temperature, then carefully turn it out onto a cutting board. Slice and serve as desired.
